For a moment, he thought he heard it wrong so he asked again.
â.. what did you say?â
âYou are really young. Well 7 years⦠no. A year has passed, so you are 8 years old now? You are no joke kid.â
Han didnât answer Jamieâs question and kept muttering things.
As Jamie stared at him with an annoyed look, Han who noticed it said.
âOh my, I was so excited. It was because I ran into a person I wanted to meet so badly, please understand that.â
âYou know Sir Onyx?â
âComrade.â
âHa, Mr. Han. Is that kid Jamie Welton?â
Braha pointed at Jamie looking startled while Ramu said âNo wonder I was pushedâ.
Izaya pushed them away and asked Han.
âReally?â
âSeems so. Isnât the proof of it the power in his tiny body?â
Izaya looked at Jamie with a troubled face.
âIt is a pity that we met under this kind of situation.â
âWe solved the mistake.â
Han smiled as he patted Izaya on the shoulder.
Siegfried, who watched them, asked Jamie.
âIs it that one with the name Beryl and last name Onyx?â
âYes. You are thinking of the right person.â
âYoung master knows him?â
âHe is a guest on my maternal grandfatherâs side.â
âAhh.â
Siegfried nodded as if he understood.
âI have heard rumors of him staying at the mansion of Marquis Bell. I heard he isnât there nowâ¦â
The last time Jamie saw him, he was resting in the Pyro Church in Apton.
It has been more than 5 months, so all his injuries must have recovered.
âBut how do they know Sir Beryl Onyx?â
âWe need to find that out.â
That Han man seemed close to Beryl.
âHey!â
Jamie yelled at Han who didnât answer.
Siegfried looked startled and whispered that Han and the others might not think such a word was directed at him, so he called again.
âHey!â
Flinch.
Han looked at Jamie. Jamie threw off his mask.
âIf someone calls you, you need to answer, why are you ignoring me?â
â⦠I didnât think I would be called in such a way.â
âYou were the one acting all arrogant a moment back.â
âR-right?â
âIf you want to be treated like an adult, shouldnât you start acting like one in front of a kid? Elder?â
ââ¦â
Siegfried didnât know what to say. He didnât expect this side of Jamie.
Han looked at Jamie with a blank expression and scratched his cheek.
âM-Mr. Han.â
Braha looked at Han with a worried face. The other ones too looked at Han.
They knew Hanâs personality well. He was now in a state where the volcano could explode at any moment.
Howeverâ¦
âHm-Phew!â
Han took a deep breath and then exhaled. After repeating a few times there was slight calmness on his face. And then he said with a smile.
âHaha. Right. I didnât listen, right?â
âBe careful of it from now.â
â⦠well, that is good to know. Okay, if you have the greatest talent, you need to be like this.â
It wasnât that he was confident because he had a great magician by his side. It wasnât that he wasnât scared either.
This was just his character. Han didnât even know why he would sometimes behave like a delicate sheep in front of Beryl. Most of the time he didnât care how he acted in front of Beryl.
The important thing was that an 8 year old kid was saying all this to him. He was being patient though, it wouldnât be an adult like thing to get angry at a kid, and if that happens wouldnât Beryl not hate him?
âHmm. Okay. You are curious about the relationship between me and Beryl?â
âYes. Did Sir Onyx tell you about me?â
Just the way the kid was talking seemed like he was annoyed with Han, and that he was underestimating Han.
Yet, Han tried to keep his expression as calm as he could.
âBecause it was my last stop. We met before coming here. I heard about you then k.i.d.â
He put pressure on the word KID. And with a triumphant face, which only made him look childish.
The problem was Jamie didnât care.
âHow did you get to know Sir Onyx?â
âNothing much. I am a frontier.â
As soon as the word Frontier came out, Siegfried stoon in front of Jamie.
Han, who noticed it, smiled.
âI donât know why, but arenât you being overly cautious?â
âYoung lord. Step back.â
âWhy?â
âGo back since itâs dangerous.â
Dangerous.
What did that mean?
Siegfried knew of it as a dangerous organization. Rather, Jamie felt nice that Seigfried didnât seem against the organization. However, the way Siegfried was acting was like he was facing enemies.
âWhy are you a Frontier?â
âYoung lord seems to know a little bit about Frontier, Iâll tell you.â
Mana raged and the shape began to shift.
Siegfriedâs power.
He continued to speak.
âThe present Frontier is an organization that is the de facto leader of the Liberation Army that is trying to overthrow the Kingdom of Harmonia in Arisha. Do you know?â
was a western continent and the Kingdom of Harmonia was one of the most powerful kingdoms in the west.
However, he was aware of the fact that corruption of officials was so severe that the Liberation Army began to rise.
But, was the Frontier actually the leader behind the Liberation Army?
âIsnât that too far-fetched?â
Han shook his head to confirm.
Siegfried warned them.
âI donât know what you came to Seldam for, but you better not be fooling around. Seldam is different from Harmonia.â
âWow- calm down, great magician.â
Han raised his hands up.
âFirst, can we move from here? I think the conversation will be long.â
They were being chased, which meant the pursuers could come at any time.
Even if Saint-Dermain was wide, it was clear that they would be found.
âLetâs do what he says.â
âYoung Lord.â
âIt is fine. Now isnât the time for this.â
This man is Berylâs friend. And didnât seem hostile towards them, fighting them would waste their strength.
Siegfried clicked his tongue in disapproval.
And then he snapped his fingers to make all 6 of them disappear.
Miju, the host of Gehenna Auction House, was turning restless. He didnât know what kind of bastards did this. All the winning items were stolen. Fortunately, the low priced ones werenât touched.
âThis canât be good!â
The items which went over 100 million, both of them were stolen! The rest were also taken, but those were too huge.
Miju bit his lip. The face of Gehenna Bernstein, the owner of the Auction house entered his mind.
Gehenna Bernstein, the owner of Miju and the auction house, was the most evil and terrifying person in the world.
He was sensitive to rewards and punishment. Those who do well are rewarded and those who donât are punished. So what punishment would Miju be given for this?
âIâm sure that Iâll suffer so much that Iâll wish for death.â
He witnessed those who were punished. And the trauma of being punished was strongly buried in his mind.
Miju was trembling at it. Nausea was rising up and he felt like puking. As he looked back, he looked at the muscular man in black.
âWhy are you still here?â
The man didnât answer.
Miju was angry with that.
âDo you know how much Gehenna invested in hiring you!? But then you canât catch a single intruder!â
Miju knew how great the manâs mind was. Which was why he was even angrier.
He even wanted to hit the man on the head, but he couldnât.
âYou have a mouth so to speak! You took so much money and abandoned the job!â
âI-â
The man spoke, and he tapped the sunglasses with his finger.
âI donât know how to catch everyone at once.â
â⦠what do you mean?â
âThey would gather in one place. So let them be.â
âHuh?!â
Mimu thought it was absurd.
If this was an ordinary guard he would have tied his limbs and dragged him around. But he could do this to a âFight Masterâ.
Fight Master Darius.
A bare-handed fighting arena where all kinds of bad things were allowed. And this man was the king of darkness who had reigned there for over 10 years.
His ability to reach Master class was completed. And wasnât afraid of anyone.
âThe guy who can tear down two Sword Masters to death with his bare hands.â
Miju gulped as he recalled it. It was a silly thing, but such rumors still flowed about his strength.
So, even though he yelled, he couldnât get himself to hit him.
âThat is an excuse!â
Darius was blind.
The sunglasses he wore were to hide his blindness. However, Darius was looking at Miju.
âIt isnât an excuse.â
Darius raised his head.
âEnough.â
âWhat?â
âLetâs fulfil that contract,â
âDarius?!â
Darius didnât respond to Mijuâs call. He turned and walked outside.
Miju was taken aback by this. But it didnât stop him. He was scared and he didnât want to get in the way.
It was when he felt that, and got down from the stage,
âAh!â
âUh.â
The lady with pink hair was going somewhere with a mask.
The lady who spent a huge amount of money to win All Might!
Miju didnât know how to react. She spent 800 Million to win All might. But it was stolen.
If she could spend 800 million. Then she had to be a powerful person.
âI-If I say something?â
He might get slapped for the mistake which happened.
It would be fortunate if it ends with a slap.
âI-I apologize Madam! This must have been horrible! We will bring it back!â
Miju banged his head and apologized.
Fortunately, Miju thought of many ways to not get punished by this woman.
âUh, uh. Ah⦠r-right. I hope you find them.â
Venna was neither rich nor a noble. She was from a race which had gone extinct.
But the man was mistaken.
She made a bid of 800 million and was successful on it, so with the note from Kiriel playing it wasnât a problem.
Venna spoke in a firm manner.
âI will wait for you to get it.â
She said that in an arrogant voice and turned.
Miju kept saying, âThank Youâ as he banged his head to the ground.
Venna sighed as she walked out.
âThank god.â
At that moment, Philion spoke.
âThat human.â
âHuman? That person now?â
[No. The black man who left.]
âWhat about him?â
âDid you not feel it?â
Venna tilted her head, âFeel what?â
[Watch out for that person. Even if you try to be careful, can we avoid him?]
âWhat are you saying?â
[He is strong. To the extent that he cannot be compared with the Baron of the Devildom]
Venna gulped at Philionâs words.
And then mumbled under her breath.
âEhh, what do we have to worry about? We are customers here.â
He was the security person of the auction house.
âSo why am I feeling this anxious?â
Jamieâs face flashed through her mind.
âNoâ¦â
She was here as a customer at the auction. That man wouldnât come across their paths at all.
Never.
